Oba St Clair was a member of our Eugene Prop Spinners. <Many olde timers in our club remember him, and have many stories of Oba, his models, and his flights. He is generally regarded as flying the first control-line model plane (which still exists at his daughter's home).
That was, of course, before my time. I joined the Prop Spinners in 2002, when I moved to Eugene, Oregon
